What a crock of **** that guy is spewing. As a retired Law Enforcement Officer I am very familiar with Civil Forfeiture or what we called Asset Forfeiture. Not once did I or anyone I worked with pull over a car for a minor traffic infraction and then seize a wad of cash that the driver or one of the passengers had on them and then say "have a nice day!" and let them drive off. There's a whole lot more to that story. That youtube guy is only telling a very small part of a story to have his audience get riled up and is nothing more than a hater of Law Enforcement. People love to hear stuff like this to justify in their own minds how their own actions are ok even though the rest of society says they're not. It always amazed me that people believe the theory that breaking the Law and getting caught can be justified because a dirty cop was exposed in the news a couple of years ago. Therefore all cops are dirty. Therefore their illegal actions should go unpunished. There are thousands of people that think this exact way and guys like this youtube person rely on them to remain relevant online.
Several cases most notably the out of state, Elderly Lady traveling though La in new Continental. She had a few thousand dollars on her. It and the car was seized. It took about half of her money to get attorney to get the rest back.
Another, in Nashville at airport a Landscaper, had taken a larger sum of money out of the bank and was flying to somewher4, I have forgotten, to purchase plants or supplies. They seized it and he ws out of business before he got it back.
